The Routledge Companion to the Study of Local Musicking
In January 2001, Christopher Small gave a lecture in New York City that was subsequently published in the journal iAmerican Music/i (Small 2001). Its title was an accurate abstract of its content: "Why doesn't the whole world like chamber music?" Small's audience for the original talk was the annual conference of Chamber Music America, so it will come as no surprise that its reception was equivocal. The main storyline of his presentation was a va…
The Cultural Study of Music: A Critical Introduction
The Cultural Study of Music is an anthology of new writings that serves as a basic textbook on music and culture. Increasingly, music is being studied as it relates to specific cultures--not only by ethnomusicologists, but by traditional musicologists as well. Drawing on writers from music, anthropology, sociology, and the related fields, the book both defines the field--i.e., "What is the relation between music and culture?"--and then presents c…
The cultural study of music: A Critical Introduction
What is the relationship between music and culture? The first edition of The Cultural Study of Music: A Critical Introduction explored this question with groundbreaking rigor and breadth. Now this second edition refines that original analysis while examining the ways the field has developed in the years since the book's initial publication. Including contributions from scholars of music, cultural studies, anthropology, sociology, and psychology, …

A Melville Scholar at Risk: The Disappearance of Prof. Hassan Muayyad
Sexual Violence and American Manhood
Taking up topics as diverse and timely as the work of FBI profilers, the pornography debates, feminist analyses of male supremacy as sexual abuse, the ritual meanings of fraternity gang rape, and the interplay of racial and sexual injustice, T. Walter Herbert illuminates the chronic masculine anxieties that seek compensation in fantasies of sexual coercion and in sexual offenses against women. His work offers an unusually clear view of this preva…

The Cambridge Companion to Brass Instruments
This Companion is the first book to cover so many diverse aspects of brass instruments and in such detail. It provides an overview of the history of brass instruments, and their technical and musical development. Although the greatest part of the volume is devoted to the western art music tradition, with chapters covering topics from the medieval to the contemporary periods, there are important contributions on the ancient world, non-western musi…
Victorian bands and their dissemination in the colonies
This morning I unintentionally stumbled across the annual Cherry Blossom Parade in Washington, DC. It was probaly little different than any other American public parade, full of decorated floats and oversized balloons interspersed between uniformed marching bands from high schools all over the country. What caught my attention was the 'foreign' element in the parade - three groups that represented Japan, land of the cherry blossom. Two of these g…

The repertory of a Victorian provincial brass band
Considerable time and print has been expended in attempting to define and date the first British brass band. This controversy should take a subordinate place to the more interesting questions that can be applied to the topic of brass bands when, unambiguously, they do exist as a fairly widespread activity and can reasonably be regarded as the active embryo of the standard ensembles which eventually formed the brass band 'movement

The Erotics of Purity: The Marble Faun and the Victorian Construction of Sexuality
The Student Protest Movement
“As one seeks to explain what moves these young people today, one is often perplexed by apparently contradictory tendencies. The movement is strongly characterized by the desire not to be understood. Another source of perplexity is the fact that the political activity, which receives so much attention, is at its heart non-political. Except for a very few, those who engage in political activity do so on the basis of an orientation to personal life…
Homosexuality and Spiritual Aspiration in Moby-Dick
There is now widespread agreement that Melville depicts homosexual affection in the passages of Moby-Dick that treat Ishmael's developing friendship with Queequeg and in a later chapter entitled "A Squeeze of the Hand." Among critics who have sought to deal directly with the homosexual motif there is the further agreement that psychoanalytic concepts offer the greatest promise of yielding a persuasive interpreta- tion.1 Psychoanalytic doctrine is…

Bands. The Brass Band Movement in the 19th and 20th Centuries
This work is devoted to brass bands and brings together the work of most of the principal authorities on the subject. The British brass band is a product of the 19th century - in the final decades of Victoria's reign publishers estimated that there were 40,000 bands in the country. Audiences for open-air contests and concerts were measured in tens of thousands. By that time the brass band had acquired most of the main musical characteristics that…
The Private Melville
Dearest Beloved: The Hawthornes and the Making of the Middle-Class Family
The marriage of Nathaniel and Sophia Hawthorne--for their contemporaries a model of true love and married happiness--was also a scene of revulsion and combat. T. Walter Herbert reveals the tragic conflicts beneath the Hawthorne's ideal of domestic fulfillment and shows how their marriage reflected the tensions within nineteenth-century society. In so doing, he sheds new light on Hawthorne's fiction, with its obsessive themes of guilt and grief, b…
